    X door to body alignment ?

    I have original X doors on an M998. Currently well aligned to the striker pin and operating well. Looking to adjust the door to sill and B pillar gap as a few doors are misaligned. What’s the fitment guidance for gap to sill and B pillar? Eg 1/4”-1/8” etc? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Finished installing LT inside cowl insulation. It’s a bear of a job unless the tub is off the frame but it can be done. TM is a good reference and fairly complete. Note insulation piece must be cut in two along parting line per TM for retrofit or replacement on vehicle. Sent from my...

    Rear suspension spring help?

    Old thread reactivation I know. Parts TM was a great reference when looking at replacement rear springs for my M998. My vehicle had sagged springs RF and RR. To my surprise the 12338316-2 spring is used in the rear for the M998 H13 UOC. Same spring is used in the Hummer H1 snow plow...

    HMMWV fuel pressure testing and IP timing

    Nice. I was thinking exactly along these lines of adding a mechanical gauge to the filter either at the pressure transducer location or the drain tap via a tee. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    HMMWV fuel pressure testing and IP timing

    Q1: I suspect a lift pump failure on my 6.2. Looking to tap in a test gauge at the pump and/or filter. What fittings/where do you tap in? Q2: IP advance is set at the marks no additional advance. Are there less expensive ways to check timing eg an inductive timing adapter etc? Sent from my...

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Had the tires balanced and siped. Les Schwab was able to statically balance with about 14oz or less. Dynamic balance was a no go as the machine called for up to 60oz. Hmm, i may have to get a set of balance masters/centramatic.

    Aftermarket X-door to body seals

    All 4 doors on my 998 need seals replaced. Looking at OEM vs FMP style the latter look interesting. That said, the material used is likely very inexpensive direct from AMZN/other sources. Curious if anyone has sourced their own adhesive seal and how the results were...

    6.2l oil pan end seal #?

    Looking for the P/N or felpro cross reference for the pan end seal (rubber) that goes between the main cap and curved portion of the pan. I’d prefer not to buy the whole pan seal kit as I will not be using the cork. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Parking Brake Lockout

    Old thread revival I know. Looking for the spec on the rectangle tube sleeve that was added to the early model parking brake lever. Typically painted red. Looks like an easy retrofit vs $200 for the updated leaver assy. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
